I had this system fitted in 2017 constantly problems
I had this system fitted in 2017. Did not expect problems with the system after a few months. Poor connection, wires loose ( obviously poor shoddy fitting by the fitter) I had to call someone back to tidy up all the messy wires and re configure the system..so complicated. Since fitting I have always had either one camera down or in black & white. The actual devic box has no light to indicate if on or off. It only takes a slight knock nudge of the box and a camera will go down. I have had to call someone out four times to try sort the problem. Each time this only seems to be temporary fix and the fault reappears. Approx £700 I paid. I now know for sure there are better cheaper and more reliable systems out there than Hikvision but fell for the spiel if the fitter who recommended it. I was told I might need new cameras.....surely they have a longer life span than 3yrs at approx £80 a camera. My advise don't buy.
